For me, it's all about the characters. I love Reo but I find Kabal so boring and ugly. When Pig is playing Mileena, my eyes are glued to the screen and I'm rooting for him like a valley chick cheer leader...yet when Pig plays Kenshi, I can't help but roll my eyes and judge them both (hehe love you Brant)
When Tom Brady plays Subzero...it's so exciting. When he plays Raiden, I've suddenly lost my hard on. (my mk hard on, that is)
I would like to like Chris G, but I despise his piss poor childish attitude and his hair just irks me. Yet, I love watching his Reptile...even though I hate Reptile.
Justin Wong seems harmless in real life, but so boring to watch....ehhh not talking shit...just seems boring.
I love watching Neo Russell...but he kills the hype for me because he apparently has taken a vow to NEVER go for max or even remotely high damage with his characters, lol.
Perfect Legend...I can't help but marvel at his speed....but I am so bored by his cast.
